Issue #391 has been updated by Clément OUDOT.

Well seen. We can maybe add an option to allow to return such messages, else we 
will never say if the account exists or not.

Bug #391: Email based password reset allows brute force attack using wildcard *
http://tools.lsc-project.org/issues/391

Category: Self Service Password
Target version: self-service-password-?


The email based password reset allows an individual to test for user names to 
attack by using '*' wildcards.  i.e. you can enter jc* in the username and it 
will return an error to you that indicates if it found a user name that matches 
by starting with the letters j and c.
